Whirled

 I think I might have just set a personal record.  I just did a quick count and realized that I’ve made 8 complete quilts and 3 quilt tops in just under 4 weeks.  Oi vey.  I need a vacation!

The quilts do make for a pretty stack on my cutting table though!  I can’t wait to share them all with you!

Whirled Quilt by A Bright Corner

This quilt was my most recent finish.  It’s made from my Whirled quilt pattern and I used that cute retro alarm clock print from Lori Holt’s Gracie Girl line as the jump off point for choosing the rest of the fabrics.  I’ve been waiting for the chance to use that print in a way that would let it be the star and I’m really happy with how it turned out. 

Retro Alarm Clocks

The Whirled pattern has instructions for three sizes - crib, throw, & twin.  The one I made here is the crib size, which I think also makes a decent lap or small throw size quilt  I guess everyone has their own idea of what a “throw” or “lap” size is right?  This one measures 50” x 64” so what would you call that?  It’s just the right size to throw over my lap while I watch tv or read, so I give it a thumbs up!

Thanks for stopping by!  Hope you have a wonderful Friday.  We’re celebrating my oldest son’s birthday today – I now am officially the mom of a teenager!  Yikes!
